Configuration

Please use the entries for your preferred mirror from the following
by replacing MIRROR with
one of the base URIs in the mirrors page.

Also, specify the JPP release you want by replacing VERSION
with one of 1.7, 5.0 or 6.0. The comments say 1.7, adjust them accordingly
if you want, but they are just comments. Note that JPP 5.0 and 6.0 do not have
repositories for many of the legacy OS releases.

Note that you will want to add the "generic" distribution
components to your configuration along with the distribution specific
ones because of package interdependencies.

Note: users of yum 2.1 or later on Fedora or Red Hat
Enterprise Linux and compatibles (such as CentOS) can simply download
jpackage.repo and place it in
/etc/yum.repos.d. Be sure to enable the distro specific
repository for your distro in it after installing the file.

Attention Fedora users: you are better off manually downloading
the jpackage-release RPM and installing it
in your system as it provides a repo file that uses priorities
to avoid conflicts with Java packages already in Fedora base.
It also installs the JPP GPG key.

/etc/yum.conf sections (note that in order to enforce
GPG checks with yum, you should either import the JPackage Project GPG
key, or set gpgcheck to 0 in the following;
